Nate Silver’s data journalism site FiveThirtyEight and ESPN Films will debut the first of a five-part series of short films tomorrow that promise to dive into some of the most iconic moments in U.S. election history.

Each episode of FiveThirtyEight Elections will be paired with a podcast and related-feature content to provide greater context to each moment.

The first, titled “The Dean Scream,” explores former presidential candidate Howard Dean’s infamous speech following his defeat in the 2004 Iowa Caucus. The special features interviews with the former Vermont governor and breaks down what many consider to have been his downfall.

“The films are going to bring people back to these moments we all remember, then break them down from a FiveThirtyEight perspective. In the podcasts, we’ll do the same, but also have a chance to dive a little deeper on some of the lesser-told angles,” FiveThirtyEight podcast host and producer Jody Avirgan told TheWrap. “For example, with ‘The Dean Scream’ podcast, we have a mini piece-within-a-piece that explores the way the microphone Dean was using that night may have distorted the sound of his yell.”

Silver and senior political writer and analyst Harry Enten are joined by several political insiders and observers, including former Iowa Sen. Tom Harkin, Dean’s former communications director Tricia Enright, campaign manager Joe Trippi, filmmaker Rob Reiner and 2004 John Kerry campaign manager Mary Beth Cahill.

“Dukakis” is the next episode in the series, exploring the infamous image of Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis’ small frame perched awkwardly on a 68-ton M1A1 Abrams tank in the summer of 1988. The picture is often blamed for sending Dukakis’ campaign into a tailspin, but the film promises to reveal other important factors beneath the surface that contributed heavily to the largest drop in favorability of any presidential candidate in history.

“Obama/Wright” is another scheduled episode, which plans to tell the story of Barack Obama’s speech that distanced the eventual presidential election winner from controversial Rev. Jeremiah Wright. The film will feature commentary from speechwriter Jon Favreau and chief campaign strategist David Axelrod.

Silver’s FiveThirtyEight first gained national attention during the 2008 presidential election, when it correctly predicted the results of the presidential election in 49 of 50 states, along with all 35 U.S. Senate races.

1980: When the moderator tried to silence Ronald Reagan's microphone during a Republican primary debate, Reagan shouted: "I am paying for this microphone!" The line became a "political home run" for Reagan. It was also borrowed it from the 1948 film "State of the Union."

1980: In a general-election debate between incumbent president Jimmy Carter and Reagan, Carter said, “I had a discussion with my daughter Amy the other day before I came here to ask her what the most important issue was. She said she thought the control of nuclear weaponry.” Carter was mocked for taking policy advice from his 13-year-old daughter, helping Reagan to win the election.

2008: Hillary Clinton attacked Barack Obama for allegedly lifting lines from the speeches of Massachusetts politician Duval Patrick. She had a good zinger... that didn't quite have the effect she was hoping for. "Lifting whole passages from someone else's speeches is not change you can believe in, it's change you can Xerox," Clinton said -- but the audience booed.

2008: When a moderator asked Hillary Clinton if she had the personal appeal to overtake Barack Obama, the future president interjected that Clinton was "likable enough."

CBS

2008: While illustrating a point about a Bush/Cheney energy bill that Obama had signed, Arizona Senator John McCain referred to the future president as "that one."

2011: Texas Gov. Rick Perry shifted his reputation from budget-slasher to bungler when he blanked on the names of all three federal agencies he proposed to eliminate as president: "I can’t, the third one. I can’t. Sorry. Oops."

2016: When asked during an interview in September what he would do about Aleppo, the epicenter of the Syrian refugee crisis, Libertarian presidential candidate Gary Johnson asked, "And what is Aleppo?" That line became a viral sensation, even earning some rather funny spoofs. Johnson then made things worse when later that month he couldn't name a single world leader -- dead or alive -- during a town hall with Chris Matthews. And just to be sure this second flub would get some traction, Johnson told Matthews he was having an "Aleppo moment." Talk about about a triple whammy.

MSNBC

2016: Green Party presidential candidate JillS Stein was hoping to be the answer to Bernie Sanders after he dropped out of the primary race. But answer she gave during an AMA reddit sesh put a damper on her plans. Stein, a Harvard Medical School graduate, raised some eyebrows when she took a decidedly anti-vaxxer stance: "As a medical doctor, there was a time where I looked very closely at those issues, and not all those issues were completely resolved. There were concerns among physicians about what the vaccination schedule meant, the toxic substances like mercury which used to be rampant in vaccines. There were real questions that needed to be addressed." Stein later clarified that she was not, in fact, an opponent of vaccines.
